Summary
Bryan Johnson, a 46-year-old tech multimillionaire focused on anti-aging, stopped using rapamycin—a supplement he took for five years—after research suggested it might accelerate aging.
Johnson cited side effects like skin infections and glucose issues, as well as findings from a recent study showing rapamycin could worsen epigenetic aging.
Known for extreme anti-aging experiments, Johnson also created the health startup Blueprint, which markets pricey supplements.
His controversial methods, including teenage blood transfusions and genital shock treatments, have raised skepticism about their effectiveness and safety.
This dude is just going to spend a bunch of money on shit that will eventually kill him. What a waste.
What an efficient allocation of capital!
That’s what we all do every day, this guy just has more to spend
Nah some of the shit we buy sustains us, and some of the killer shit we buy at least provides joy. This guy is just a miserable, wasteful asshole.
You have to see this guy’s routine. His life is built around attempting to extend his longevity. He lives like a luxurious lab rat being pocked, prodded, measured and eats/drinks/sleeps/exercises on a ultra-strick program.
It seems miserable.
